what happened
According to Moody's, India's Central Depository Services (CDSL) reported a 24% rise in net profit for the September quarter, to ₹174 crore from ₹140 crore a year earlier. Revenue climbed to ₹394 crore from ₹319 crore.
Demand stayed strong, with about 75 lakh new demat accounts opened during the quarter and assets under custody passing ₹89 lakh crore. The demat account base grew about 17% year on year. CEO Nehal Vora said participation in the securities market has remained resilient despite global volatility.
The update also covered leadership and investment changes. Geetha Gangadharan joined the Governing Board as a non-independent director in August, while Farokh Patel and Kinjal Shah took new posts in September. CDSL also made further investments in India International Bullion Holding IFSC and a strategic investment in Open Network for Digital Commerce.
why it matters
For investors, the figures point to growing retail participation in Indian equities. Depositories earn fees tied to account numbers and assets held, so these metrics track overall market activity closely.
